Liverpool added another trophy to their collection on Saturday afternoon after overcoming Chelsea again in a penalty shoot-out. One thing that was noticed during the game was how some of the Liverpool fans booed God Save the Queen and Prince William at the Wembley Stadium.
Whether you like the Royal family or not, should the Liverpool fans not show respect? it’s a strange one as some Liverpool fans don’t consider themselves England, their Scouse rather than English. Whatever that means…

Liverpool fans booing the national anthem live on BBC tv. Something I feel we should save, before they edit the highlights. pic.twitter.com/77itZfZCwv

I think it would be the right thing to do if Jurgen Klopp made a public apology on behalf of the Liverpool Fans to HRH Prince William on their despicable & outrageous behaviour during the National Anthem.

An unexpected moment at today's #FACupFinal, where Liverpool fans booed Prince William and National Anthem. My understanding (correct me if I'm wrong, Twitter) is that it's still felt there was an establishment cover-up over the Hillsborough disaster and getting justice for it. pic.twitter.com/uFLAJEJp30

I'm from Ivory Coast, and even I know Left wing Liverpool fans have been booing the National Anthem and UK Establishment symbols for decades. This was nothing to do with an attack on Prince William personally. To suggest otherwise simply displays profound ignorance. https://t.co/ADjqHVtrf3

The National Anthem celebrates a family of Malthusian psychopaths who want us to eat bugs and own nothing. Prince William is as fully on board with the eco-fascist agenda and the Great Reset as his creepy Dad. Liverpool fans are awake – unlike their smug, idiotic, doomed critics.

Liverpool fans are a disgrace and every single one that booed the anthem should face a life time ban from attending matches.
Its a criminal offence in some countries to boo the anthem in such a way. maybe we need that here, to deal with feral fans?

Liverpool booing the national anthem reminds me of why everyone hates Liverpool fans.
